Sanctuary – Finding Solace and Illumination in the Garden

Nanna Aida Svendsen

Step into the stillness – A luminous collection of poetry by Nanna Aida Svendsen

Siljans Måsar Publishing proudly presents Sanctuary – a tender, wise and heartfelt collection of poems by the English-born, Danish-raised, and Sweden-based poet Nanna Aida Svendsen. Rooted in nature and soul, these poems gently open the gates to a hidden garden – a sanctuary where grief softens into grace, presence becomes a prayer, and love blossoms in stillness.

Written in rich yet simple language, Sanctuary invites the reader to reconnect with inner truth, to find rest in solitude, and to honor the seasons of life. With every poem, Svendsen weaves themes of aging, self-compassion, spiritual insight, and the mystical pulse of the Earth into a soft yet powerful poetic experience.

“This is not just a book of poems – it is a place to rest, to breathe, and to remember what really matters.”
— Cheryl Richardson, bestselling author
